Winter Concert raises the roof at Shanghai Oriental Arts Centre

The whole Dulwich Pudong community joined us for a grand Winter Concert at the Oriental Music Hall in the Shanghai Oriental Art Centre, one of the city’s most significant cultural landmarks. The concert yesterday featured 19 ensembles and choirs from different age groups, with over 450 students and teachers participating, creating a feast for the senses.

Performers ranged from DUCKS to Senior School, showcasing a beautiful blend of intergenerational artistic heritage. The Year 1 and 2 Mulan and Mushu choirs delighted the audience with their bilingual melodies, while the Senior School’s Singchronised captivated with their a cappella performance. The Zheng He Orchestra elevated the atmosphere with a powerful rendition of ‘Star Wars’. Every performer displayed exceptional talent, moving the audience throughout the concert.
